FARMER'S WIFE HAS MAGIC SKILLS

Chapter 1044: Rumors Spread, Shaking Morale

Editor: Henyee Translations

In the camp, Xia Qi was silent, acknowledging Tang Jinghong’s ruthlessness, which explained his unyielding success on the battlefield.

Xia Yunjian slammed the table, “Xia Qi, did you do this on purpose?”

Xia Qi bowed, “Your Highness, I didn’t anticipate Tang Jinghong would send troops to flank us from the rear. It won’t happen again. Please, calm your anger.”

This incident thoroughly ignited Xia Qi’s fighting spirit.

At this moment, news came through, “Daling has dispatched an additional 100,000 troops for reinforcement.”

Xia Sang Kingdom’s scouts went to investigate and indeed saw a long procession of soldiers heading toward the border. They hurried back to report to Xia Qi.

With the enemy increasing their forces, Xia Qi had to revise his strategy.

Initially, he planned to send 50,000 troops to spearhead an attack on Tang’s camp. Now, he decided to dispatch 100,000 troops, leaving his rear defenses weaker.

This change led to a sudden assault on their rear guard.

The 50,000 soldiers guarding the rear were caught off guard by Tang Jinghong’s 50,000 troops. By the time Xia Qi returned to aid them, Tang Jinghong had sent reinforcements to pursue his troops.

This deceptive tactic resulted in a loss of 50,000 soldiers for Xia Sang Kingdom, while Tang’s camp only lost 10,000.

Thus, Xia Sang Kingdom’s 500,000-strong army was reduced to 350,000.

Tang’s 200,000 troops were down to 170,000.
